BTW, setting SESSION_MANAGER isn't enough to register an application 
with the session manager, so it does not imply that the MCS manager 
would connect to the session manager, that's fairly separate things 
IMHO. There is no design icompatibility here.

Shortcuts are settings. The user expects to find the shortcuts editor in 
the MCS manager, just like (s)he did with previous versions of xfce.

So that means that the shortcuts editor has to be kept in the MCS scope. 
Making a separate application would mean writting a dummy app with no 
window that would just be kept arround running to grab the keys and runs 
the applications. And at startup, that application would have to read 
the shortcut XML file just like the MCS manager does, That's what I 
meant by waste of resources in my previous message.

Cheers,
Olivier.
